‘South Asia State of Minorities
Report 2016: Mapping the Terrain’, seeks to systematically document
and track the condition of South Asia’s minorities and their access to rights
as citizens, in order to build a body of evidence, and spur public debate on the
subject, in the region. The report, jointly authored by a group of research and
advocacy groups from across South Asia – calling themselves The South Asia
Collective - aspires to contribute to advocacy for establishing South Asia-wide
minority rights standards, instruments and mechanisms, and also galvanise the
region's civil society, around minority rights protection and promotion, in
order to encourage state parties to adopt and enforce those instruments.
